Not sure if this is the right place to ask this, but I was wondering what's the house edge on the insurance bet in lunar poker? In other words, what's the probability of the dealer not having a A,K or better on a 5 card draw? And are there times that the insurance bet actually become positive EV?

Thanks in advance!

Hi! Yes, a simple calculation helps to see advantage of this bet...

A similar bet of insurance is not only in the Russian/Lunar poker ...
